Abstract: A flexible, low density thermoplastic foam and a method for lowering
the density and increasing the flexibility of a thermoplastic foam having a melting
temperature and being either amorphous with a softening temperature or
semicrystalline with a glass transition temperature. The method comprises the steps
of (a) decreasing the pressure on the thermoplastic foam to a subatmospheric pressure,
further providing that while the thermoplastic foam is under the subatmospheric
pressure, the thermoplastic foam is also at a temperature in the range of less than the
melting temperature and greater than the softening temperature if the thermoplastic
foam is amorphous, or greater than the glass transition temperature if the
thermoplastic foam is semicrystalline, whereby the thermoplastic foam expands; (b)
then exposing the thermoplastic foam to a superatmospheric pressure and a secondary
expansion gas for a sufficient amount of time to allow the secondary blowing gas to
permeate into the thermoplastic foam; and (c) then releasing the superatmospheric
pressure on the thermoplastic foam whereby the thermoplastic foam expands. With
this method, it is possible to produce thermoplastic foams having densities as low as
0.008 grams/cc. Also included in this invention are insulations made from these low
density foams.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to polymer compositions with flame
retardant properties that are made from a polymer blended using a defined
process with a smectite clay that has been reacted with a specified mixture of
organic materials. 
     The inventive compositions have the property that when the organically
modified clay is added to the polymer, a composite results which has flame-retardant
properties and is based on the finding that degree of dispersion of a
smectite organoclay in a polymer matrix will give the compositions flame-retardant
properties. Further, it has been found that it is very important to proper
functioning of the flame retardant polymer compositions that they have the
organoclay dispersed in the polymer such that it is not completely exfoliated.
